					Health care is one of the world's largest and fastest-growing industries. At its most basic level, the health care industry is composed of economic transactions 
					wherein buyers and sellers exchange money for goods and services to provide patients with curative, preventive, rehabilitative, and palliative care.
				</p>
				<p class="description">
					The demand for health is different from other goods because resources are allocated in order to both consume and produce health. Although countries around the world 
					have different health care landscapes, the general objective of all health care systems is to provide the highest quality of care to the maximum number of people at 
					the lowest cost possible.
